loped some resentment towards him now. If Huangfu Qingyun truly gained Xi'er's favor, and she ended up marrying Huangfu Qingyun in the end, Duguo City would regret it deeply."Just kidding, I haven't d..."My lady, you are still young. You shouldn't ask this question."

Wan'er was still not convinced, chasing after the master, "It was you who told me to ask if I don't understand. I just don't understand so I asked you."

"My Lady, I'm afraid I cannot answer your question. Please ask the Duchess."

"It turns out even Master doesn't know everything."

Wan'er glanced at the teacher, her tone somewhat doubtful.

"My mother always makes me wait, so I thought I'd have the teacher tell me."

The teacher's head was buzzing, this little girl was here again.

"Wan'er, do not be disrespectful to your teacher."

Wind Ling Xi walked over, and Wan'er saw her mother come, she ran up to Wind Ling Xi's legs and hugged them, calling out in a milky voice, "Mother."

"Wan'er, how have you made it difficult for your husband"

The master hastily bowed to the wind and greeted her, "Your Highness."

"Teacher, you don't need to be so polite."

Looking at Wan'er, Feng Lingxi apologized to the teacher, "Wan'er is still young and has caused you trouble."

"The county princess is exceptionally intelligent, and I, an old man, am very fond of this student."

The Master looked at Wan'er, praising her again and again. Wan'er smiled and looked at the Master, looking at Feng Lingxi for approval.

"Mother, the Master said that Wan'er is quite remarkable."

Feng Lingxi stroked Wan'er's hair softly and said, "Questions like that shouldn't be asked of Master."

Why

Wan'er looked at her teacher's embarrassed expression and asked in confusion, "Teacher said to ask if you don't understand."

"When Wan'er grows up, she'll understand."

Wan'er glanced at the master, "Alright then, Wan'er won't ask."

After finishing his words, he pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, “So Master really doesn’t understand.”

The master looked embarrassed, but didn't know how to respond.

"See the Wang Ye."

Dugu City walked in, Feng Ling Xi heard the sound, raised her head and turned to look at Dugu City walking towards them. She saw him walk in dusty.

"Xier, Wan'er."

"Daddy!"

Wan'er ran over and pounced, Dugu City opened his arms and hugged Wan'er up. Looking at the smile on Wan'er's face, the fatigue on his face disappeared in an instant.

Feng Lingxi looked at the teacher beside her, "Teacher, you go down first. Today's lesson is over here. It's been hard work."

"The Master bowed towards Dugu City and Feng Lingxi, "This old man will take his leave now."

"I just heard you were back, and here you are."

Dugu Cheng sat down with Wan'er, Feng Lingxi poured him a cup of water, looking at Dugu Cheng's tired face, her eyes full of pity. She didn't know what had happened during this time, but Dugu Cheng's face was so tired.

Just arrived, I handed it over to General Li at the military camp. This prince will return now.

Dugu Cheng looked at Wan'er who was staring at him, her eyes full of doting. "Wan'er, during the time your father is away, have you listened to what your mother said"

"Wan'er is very obedient. She goes to class with her husband every day to learn characters, and Wan'er can write her own name now."

"Oh"

Dugu Cheng's eyes were filled with surprise. Wan'er, seeing this, came down to him.

"Written by Wan'er for her father."

Seeing Wan'er climb onto the desk, holding a brush and with correct posture for both writing and sitting, what surprised them most was that her characters, "Wan'er," were written gracefully and elegantly, just like those of an adult.

"Sure, you can really write, and you write very well."

Wǎner proudly raised her head, "Master said that Wǎner is excellent, and Wǎner truly is excellent."

"Yes yes yes, Daddy's good little girl is the best."

Dugu Cheng smiled and kissed Wan'er on the face. His genuine smile took away the fatigue from his handsome face, making him look more energetic and spirited.

"Wan'er is a quick learner, the master really likes her. These days she's been studying with him constantly, at least what he teaches is better than what I learned." Feng Lingxi explained with a smile, looking at Dugu Cheng's doting gaze towards Wan'er, a happy smile on her face.

"My teacher praised me for being smart, saying that I could learn anything immediately."

Wan'er proudly raised her little face, her eyes shining with joy like stars. Her smile was truly adorable.

"Look at you, so proud of yourself."

Feng Lingxi's smile on her face became even more brilliant, "Don't you ever think about who inherited your intelligence from."

"Must be from my dad."

Wan'er hugged Dugu City, and kissed his handsome face with a smirk.

"Look at your little lover, showing off."

Feng Ling Xi shook her head indulgently, this daughter though good, was here to steal her man, and what's worse, she couldn't even beat her.

Your mother is jealous.

Du Gu Cheng laughed, watching the two of them, mother and daughter, vying for his attention. Suddenly, Du Gu Cheng felt a sense of accomplishment, realizing that his daughter had grown up.

"I'm not jealous at all."

Feng Lingxi looked at the smug expressions of the father and daughter, shrugged her shoulders, and spoke in a tone full of resignation.

"By the way, Nangong Huayun sent his mother back to Beijing."

獨孤城應了一聲，“本王聽說了，這種情況的確該回去，留在這裡對我們也冇有好處。”

“Indeed, I hope this won’t involve us.” Feng Lingxi frowned slightly, “How can one even think of doing such a thing to their own wife What does the Prime Minister want Pretending to be a model husband in front of everyone…”

If it were her, she would drag the other person to hell even if she died.

"You'd have to ask the Prime Minister himself. We can't concern ourselves with such matters. It's a private matter between husband and wife, there's nothing for us to discuss. As long as it doesn't involve us, we won't interfere."

"What about you How did you get back this time Wasn't the bandit suppression still ongoing How did you come back"

Feng Lingxi's words had just fallen, and Dugu Cheng frowned, clearly unwilling to bring up this topic.

That gloomy handsome face made Feng Lingxi's eyes uneasy, "Did Yu Mo get into trouble"

"There's still no news from Yu Mo. They're still searching. The County Magistrate and Prefect of Fengpoao aren't cooperating with this king, so I won't bother, and I've withdrawn the troops."

"What do you mean by 'not cooperating'"

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, "This king had the county magistrate come to see me, Zhou Cai arrived three days after he was sent for and said that he spent the three days discussing with the prefect on how to suppress bandits. Naturally, this king will not help suppress bandits."

Feng Lingxi understood. If it were her, she wouldn't even move a finger lightly.

"He's a small official with a big attitude. It seems he doesn't take you, the Prince of Chen, seriously."

Dugu City nodded. “This king no longer has the might of old, they naturally aren't afraid. Furthermore, the magistrate and county magistrate of Fengpo’ao are all under the chancellor’s control. It’s normal for them not to regard this king.”

Feng Lingxi soothed, "Then let's just ignore it. Leading troops into battle isn't your responsibility alone. The imperial court hasn't given you anything. If you're willing to suppress bandits, then go ahead. If not, we won't go. If they question us, just tell the truth. At worst, we can part ways. After being stifled for so many years, that's enough."

Feng Lingxi's tone also turned cold, unable to bear seeing Dugu Cheng being bullied.

When Dugu Cheng heard Feng Lingxi say that, his mood improved considerably. He was still worried that one day, if they really had a falling out, Xi'er wouldn't agree.

"Xier, thank you for supporting this King so much. With your words, this King will work harder to protect both you and your daughter."ingxi finished speaking and walked to General Li's side, "General Li, has there been any news from the Prince""Reporting to the Princess, there's no news from the King yet. It is difficult to get inf...
